Rep. Matt Gaetz: Some Colleagues Suspicious of a Secret Service Mole
2024-09-20
[Breitbart] Some lawmakers are suspicious of a potential mole in the U.S. Secret Service following the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) said during an appearance on Breitbart News Daily.

Host Mike Slater pointed to the fact that now, after the second assassination attempt on Trump, the "aura of invincibility of the Secret Service" is disappearing, which could lead to more individuals with ill-intent attempting to go after the former president.

"It’s a great point. The barrier to entry to assassination chaos seems to be lowered," Gaetz said, noting that he has colleagues who are suspicious that there is something more nefarious at play within the Secret Service.

"I have Republican colleagues who have not ruled out a mole inside the Secret Service of providing information about points of vulnerability," he said. "I’ve not seen evidence of that, but I’ve got colleagues that are very, very smart at this who say they can’t rule that out, given some of the anomalies and the fact pattern here."

#4  /\ Once they start a zealous internal look, the mole-hunt can cause so much damage

Bring on the constructive chaos.

#3  Remember James Jesus Angleton and the wreckage at the CIA he created in his search for the mole(s), never found conclusively but almost certainly there. Once they start a zealous internal look, the mole-hunt can cause so much damage and institutional suspicion that trust and cohesive attitudes will be lost as things that even a Lifestyle Poly or Single Scope Backgrounder didn't find are uncovered or planted. Perhaps the USSS has been too close to the Executive Center of Gravity for too long and has spent its once world-class reputation through executive sloth and DEI.
